Need help: car is running weird
think dweets covered it all...check your plugs like he said. When it cuts out on you at 1/4 throttle and you floor it, what kinda noise does it make and whats it do exactly. I mean it the motor completely off and it bumps itself back on or does the motor stay running and just doesnt respond?
I had this same kind of thing happen only I got a CEL that said cyinder 4 misfire...... It was misfiring until I filled up the tank about 10 minutes later and then it went away (the misfiring not the CEL, & I put 11.75 gallons in it). This happened Monday I think and no problems since then. Been raining everyday so I havn;t pulled the plug yet but I know I am running hella rich could that cause it? I dont mean normal hyundai rich I mean big time hella rich (I think anyway).
the motor stays on and doesnt resond
on way home i was flooring thru 1st then in 2nd a 4k rpms cut off again
my car also stinked of gas the whole way home it was horrible

Doode, come on, you've been good about this. Cut out with the double posting. That is your SECOND official warning.
